Red Meat Red Wine WE!

so this weekend was awesome! Corey and I drove to her lake house on Medina Lake Friday after work. on the way out we got stuff to grill steaks and 3 bottles of red wine! - hence the red meat and red wine weekend. so all weekend we ate like kings...literally, just look at our pictures...and watched movie after movie after movie, all of which i had never seen.

the list of movies include:
the breakfast club
sixteen candles
steel magnolias
harry potter and the sorcerer's stone
x-men 1
x-men 2
roman holiday

so the funniest (only funny looking back at the situation....not during) and scariest part of the weekend happened friday night. we were inside watching movies and started hearing noises coming from the garage.....and we freaked out! we each tried to gain up the confidence to go look through the door but freaked out each time we tried! also, lake culture includes just leaving everything unlocked and hanging out outside and everywhere so we had not locked the door OR closed the garage door OR closed her gate. so we freaked out! and we didn't hear like one noise we heard noise after noise after louder noise. i swear we weren't just scared freaked out girls...neither of us were the girls that camped out in the backyard but ended up on the living room floor after two hours...i mean at this point we were watching the breakfast club! how scared could that possibly make us? but anyways we ended up calling the police and lee because we were super scared...luckily the cop didn't find anything and he assumed that it was some sort of animal and said that he would patrol the area for the night. whew! but when the officer arrived we heard a dog bark and FREAKED OUT and then bang bang bang on the door haha soooo scary...but thank your mister officer! haha but one of our insane questions to lee was, what do we do if someone comes inside, he goes well what do you have to use as a weapon, and my response is a plastic hanger hahaha he goes no that won't work! and then he says goes go to the kitchen and get a knife and corey and i look at each other and both go no we aren't getting up! (btw thank you lee for answering your phone after our 3 frantic phone calls, we figured you'd know what to do and thanks for your response, he wanted to come and protect us, good friend)

okay foodies...here are our awesome meals! we really are too good at food for our own good!

[our three wines...two choosen randomly and one from the wine sample man at HEB...sadly the Palo Alto wasn't opened so we are saving it for Wednesday...of the other two I prefer the maroon one]

[Dinner Night 1: half a steak cooked medium and wilted spinach with sauted onions, garlic, yellow and orange peppers]

[Breakfast Day Two: scrambled eggs with the leftover spinach stuff and tomatoes and bacon]

[Lunch Day 2: open faced sandwhich on sourdough with hummas and grilled eggplant and grilled corn, yes i had already taken a bite out of the corn - sorry]

[Corey and I grilling]

[Dinner Day 2: steak cooked well and baked potato...I managed to eat this whole steak but not much potato]

hope your weekend was spectacular!
